OOO you're strange Don't lame me baby strange Don't lame me baby
Lyrics (from liner notes on The Slider):
I see you walking, I see you talking
With all of my friends
I'm shadowed under, You're like some thunder
I wanna be your friend
I wanna call you, I wanna ball you
All night long
In winds of passion, My whip is lashing
I wanna get you and then
CHORUS:
OOO you're strange
Don't lame me baby strange
Don't lame me baby
The city's shaking, I ain't faking
Baby this is the end
I'm overloaded, My head's exploded
I wanna get you and then
CHORUS
Notes: The version on The Slider is in standard tuning. The version
in "Born to Boogie" is a half step higher. Marc Bolan doesn't use a
capo on this one, however, so he either tuned a half step higher or
the film maker (Ringo Starr!) sped it up a bit.
